# LinkedIn Ads

## Authentication methods

#### OAuth

OAuth with LinkedIn uses your own OAuth credentials, not Omnata's. To create them:

1. Visit [https://developer.linkedin.com](https://developer.linkedin.com/)
2. Click "Create App"
3. Give your app a Name and associate it with your LinkedIn company page (this will not make your app visible publicly)
4. Upload a logo for this app, only you will see this during the OAuth flow from Snowflake
5. Once your app is created, add an authorised URL for your Snowflake account.

{% hint style="info" %}
The following Snowflake query will construct the correct value for your account:\
\
`select 'https://'||get(parse_json(SYSTEM$allowlist()),0):"host"::varchar||'/oauth/complete-secret' as REDIRECT_URL;`
{% endhint %}

1. Ensure the following OAuth scopes are included: r\_ads, r\_ads\_reporting, r\_organization\_social
2. Generate a Client Secret, copy it along with the Client ID
